About The Borrowed Wife

The Borrowed Wife revolves around the intertwined lives of Maricar (Camille), Rico (Rafael), Earl (TJ) and Tessa (Pauleen) and how one secret sets their destinies in a shared trajectory towards love and redemption.

In the series, Maricar is a kind-hearted and simple woman who works at the spa and wellness business owned by her best friend, Tessa. She always follows what Tessa says thus, becoming a second fiddle to her bossy best friend. However, Maricar inadvertently out values Tessa when Rico courts and eventually marries her, because Tessa covets Rico for herself.

Maricar chose to be a full time wife to Rico and mother to their child, Joana. But everything changed when Tessa came back with a vengeance. Tessa seduced Rico and Maricar eventually found out about the betrayal of her husband and her former best friend. It was already too late when Rico realized what he did to his wife because Maricar suddenly disappeared, a void which Tessa took advantage of to endear herself to Rico.

Maricar met Earl in a secluded beach resort where an accident ensued. When she woke up after the accident, she was disoriented, confused and could not remember anything. Earl made her believe she is Sofia, his girlfriend. Little did she know, Earl, a plastic surgeon changed her face and her personality. She becomes subservient to Earl. Until one day, Earl introduced her to Rico and Tessa. This unravels a series of events that constantly intertwined Maricar/Sofia's life with that of Rico (her own husband).

Will Maricar regain her memory? What will Earl do if he finds out that the woman he claimed as his own, is actually Rico's wife? What will Tessa do if she finds out that Maricar is still alive and Sophia and Maricar are one and the same person? Will Rico still be able to take back his wife who he thought was dead?
